Kardashian's Hidden Hills Estate
Kim Kardashian resides at the sprawling Hidden Hills property with her four children: North, Chicago, Saint, and Psalm. The opulent mansion was initially acquired by Kardashian and her former husband, Kanye West, in 2014 for an estimated $20 million.
Following their divorce, which was finalized in November 2022, Kardashian purchased West's share of the estate, including its contents, for $23 million as part of their settlement.
